Ehrenfest theorem

The Ehrenfest theorem, named after Austrian theoretical physicist Paul Ehrenfest, relates the time derivative of the expectation values of the position and momentum operators x and p to the expectation value of the force F = − V ′ ( x ) {\displaystyle F=-V'(x)} on a massive particle moving in a scalar potential V ( x ) {\displaystyle V(x)} ,
